DL Zeta's Celestial Vision

There is a great thread of yearning in human consciousness now to search out new beginnings and bring about a renewal that will carry through the year ahead.  The beginning of a new year marks the birthing of new energetic possibilities.  This awakens the greening of new growth that symbolizes hope within the heart.

The renewal so many seek at the beginning of each new year has at its root a desire for renewal that extends well beyond receiving a spa treatment, improving one's diet, undergoing a fast or beginning a new regimen of physical exercise.  All these steps have the possibility of bringing you closer to the recognition of your deepest longing, but they are just stepping stones along the path to self-realization. At a deeper level, this hope seeks to transcend limitations and to realize one's true nature. It is transcendence that allows the spirit to fly free of the shackles of illusion that holds so many in servitude on the physical plane.

With each year that passes, there is either a moving toward the realization of the deepest longing of the soul, or a moving away from it.  Those who have taken their meaning solely from the outer world will begin to notice a hollow feeling.  Over time, this empty space expands into a void.  This is often experienced as the dry rattle of a lonely wind howling across a great barren expanse.  This is the sensation of spiritual poverty as life force recedes from the life and physical body.

Life force energy arrives proportionate to the amount that is needed.  Those who put a great effort toward discovering their spiritual mission and carry it out in whatever means available receive the life force energy needed to do this. Within the moment, they receive a great pulsing of life force energy.  By contrast, those who retreat into illusion, seeking only the comfort of distraction and entertainment, suffer a stagnancy that shuts down the flow of life force energy over time.

You may consider how much life force energy is required to start a new healing center and assist many beings to health and well-being compared to how much life force is used to play a video game or eat a plate of cookies.  There is nothing wrong with the latter unless it takes the place of fulfilling one's purpose in life.  What we are talking about here is allowing an external pleasure- seeking impulse to become the guiding desire of one's life.

When one's life force energy is shut down or stagnant for long periods of time, the physical body starts to "amp down," and the spirit begins to withdraw from the life.  At the physical level, you can measure life force in terms of the oxygenation of cells.  A lack of oxygen most always results in physical disease.  This is the physical explanation for disease that reflects the spiritual withdrawal of life force energy from the body.

The good news is that regardless of how far you have traveled off course, regardless of the current state of your physical being, you can choose to enter into the Portal of Personal Renewal and begin turning this energy around.  We are offering you today 12 steps to creating true personal renewal in your life.  One need not wait until the beginning of the new year to undertake this journey of renewal. You can choose to step into this Portal of Renewal any time and any place.  In fact, every day, every hour, every moment can, with the alignment of intention, will, purpose, and soul desire, become a Portal of Personal Renewal, moving you further along the path of your deepest longing.

12 steps to creating personal renewal:

1) Identify your life purpose and ask your guides to reveal to you the steps to fulfilling this purpose.  If you don't know yet what your life purpose is, begin reading the energy of your entire life to look for clues.  Write your autobiography and examine the energy and essence of all the major milestones.  Everything that has ever been created in your life has been designed to carry you further into the realization of this purpose.  Make lists of your strengths and weaknesses, the things you love, your talents, and your deepest desires.  These are further clues to the nature of your life purpose.

2) Set aside time each day for silence and meditation.

3) Learn to still your mind by practicing concentration skills.  Concentrating the attention on a candle flame for 10 minutes each day while releasing all thoughts will help still and focus the mind.

4) Eat a diet that consists of primarily live foods.

5) Fast periodically to clean and detox the body and help release your self from over involvement in the physical world.

6) Develop your intuition.  Recording and interpreting your dreams each day is a good way to begin developing intuition. Also, make a practice of listening to the still, small voice within you and observe how the information it offers assists you throughout your day.

7) Create a list of the 10 things you most dearly desire to create and ask your guides to show you steps you can take to begin creating these desires now.  Look to see how each item on your Ten Most Wanted list is aligned with your life purpose.

8) Have a goal, purpose, and activity for everything you do.

9) Engage in some sort of physical activity each day. It is especially beneficial to incorporate physical activity such as yoga that unifies mind body and spirit.

10) Make time each day for creative play. Write in a journal, paint, take a long walk in nature. Do what gives you joy.

11) Find some way to share your gifts and talents with others.

12) Clean out closets, drawers, your house and everywhere unused items accumulate.  Release everything that you no longer need.  This includes old feelings you may be holding onto.  Practice gratitude and forgiveness and release the past so you may step more fully into the present moment.
